Canon has quietly introduced an update to its flagship Speedlite flash. The Canon Speedlite EL-1 Ver. 2 is a high-performance flash designed with the ability to beam light up to 190 feet or add a subtle glow down to an impressive 1/8192th power.
With a 190-foot guide rating, a recycle time of less than a second, and built-in wireless capabilities, the EL-1 Ver. 2 is clearly a flash designed for professionals and advanced hobbyists – with the previous version among the best Canon flashguns in DCW rankings. Along with TTL and manual flash, the EL-1 V2 also includes a stroboscopic mode, flash exposure bracketing, high-speed sync, and a modeling lamp.
